ForSaleByOwner.com Helping Home Sellers Save Money in a Down Real Estate Market
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON) March 11, 2008 -- People like Eric and Gina Maas of Yutan, Nebraska, used ForSaleByOwner.com, the largest web site for the "for sale by owner" real estate consumer, to sell their home without an agent. The couple put their home on the market and sold it for $489,000 within three months, saving nearly $30,000 in commission costs.
"ForSaleByOwner.com is very easy to use and its national marketing exposure helped us find a buyer who was moving to Nebraska from Washington," said Gina Maas. "We would never use a real estate agent again. Not just because of the savings, but also because we were in control of the process. No one is more motivated to sell a home than the home's owner."
According to ForSaleByOwner.com, real estate commissions have increased 43 percent since 2000 and the average U.S. home seller paid nearly $14,000 in commissions last year. Real estate agents and brokers collected an estimated $55 billion in commissions during 2007, one of the highest years on record.
